Lately, I've read an interesting comparison between college graduates in the early 1960s as opposed to those of today. According to this author, it seems more students in the early '60s were more interested in contributions they could make in their fields. Especially in Science and Engineering. Making their mark, so to speak. Of course making money is what people have always wanted, but then it was considered more important to gain a solid reputation in your profession----first.
Today, it would seem, the emphasis is on choosing the most lucrative career path---whatever that might be, regardless of whether there is any real passion for the work or not.
And, we wonder why we have problems?
Regards,
Dave
